Why Does Orlistat Cause Diarrhea?
Orlistat causes diarrhea because of how it works in your digestive system. The medication blocks lipase enzymes that break down dietary fat, preventing approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed. This unabsorbed fat must exit your body naturally through bowel movements, often resulting in oily, loose stools or diarrhea. The more fat in your meal, the more pronounced these effects become. When you get your orlistat prescription online through EverydayMeds, our UK-licensed prescribers explain exactly what to expect and how to manage these side effects effectively.
Managing Orlistat-Related Diarrhea
The key to minimising orlistat's gastrointestinal side effects lies in following a lower-fat diet. Keep each meal to approximately 15g of fat or less to reduce the likelihood of diarrhea and oily stools. Our prescribers recommend spreading your daily fat intake evenly across three main meals rather than consuming high-fat meals sporadically. Generic orlistat 120mg provides the same clinical effect as branded Xenical at a lower cost - 4 weeks costs just £29.69 with code EDM10 compared to £38.69 for Xenical. Both work identically in blocking fat absorption and may cause similar side effects.
Online Prescription Process for Orlistat
Getting your orlistat prescription online is straightforward and includes comprehensive side effect guidance. Complete our online health questionnaire, which asks about your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. A qualified UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and, if clinically appropriate, issues your prescription. The medication is then dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester and dispatched for next day delivery. Your prescriber will specifically address managing diarrhea and other gastrointestinal effects as part of your treatment plan.
Treatment Options Available
We offer three orlistat options to suit different needs and budgets. Generic orlistat 120mg is the most cost-effective choice, available in supplies from 2 weeks (£15.20 with EDM10) to 12 weeks (£86.39 with EDM10). Branded Xenical 120mg contains identical active ingredient but costs more - 12 weeks costs £116.09 with EDM10. For those preferring lower-strength treatment, Alli 60mg provides half the dose with typically milder side effects, though still effective for weight management when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
